Dear book_luvr;

AGAIN:
The number is correct, but you forgot the units!
You have to work with units, otherwise you get lost!

Good Luck!

the units are gmol-1....ie. grams per mol..(the number of grams in 1 mol of substance)

Dear book_luvr;

Molar mass has the unit g/mole, so 44.08 g/mole would be correct!

Now you can divide your mass of propane by the molar mass, as you told before!
Units again!!

Good Luck!

Okay how could I possibly answer

What is the mass of 0.750mol of lead (II) nitrate

Should I make the formula.... Pb2NO3 and then find the molar mass of that...then i have no idea what i'd do after that!

mass(Pb(NO3)2) = amount of moles of Pb(NO3)2 x molar mass Pb(NO3)2

General formula: m=nM
